  • Uniform help

    Am trying to identify the uniform for a friend. The photo is possibly c1912, taken in Stourbridge. The subject, Ernest Everton, fought in the Boer and Great wars, but I suspect this isn't a military uniform. Nothing like it in the Wiki.

    Possibly a uniform for someone who plays in a band?

        Could it be a railway uniform?

          There is an Edward Everton listed as a Signalman in the Stourbridge branch of the Railway Workers Union on FMP

            Looking at the newspapers on Find My Past there are some references to the Stourbridge Town Band and the Stourbridge Military Band

              Is this your man.........



              No mention of the Boer War on here though, I looked on Kevin Asplin's site and could fine no mention of him there.
